Update 1.11 Rolling Out Now - Patch Notes

[76561199227581646]

Update 1.11 for F1 Manager 2022 is now rolling out on Steam. All changes made in Update 1.11 will apply in existing saves, unless stated otherwise in the patch notes below.

Gameplay
- Updated Safety Car procedure to allow lapped cars to unlap themselves, when appropriate
- Updated overtaking behaviour to allow cars to unlap themselves in normal race conditions, when they demonstrate sufficient pace compared to the car on the lead lap
- Reduced strength of DRS performance
- Increased effective range of slipstream, meaning that following cars will be affected by slipstream at greater distances behind a leading car
- Increased effective range of ‘dirty air’, meaning that following cars will be affected by dirty air at greater distances behind a leading car
- Added ‘Aerodynamic Balance’ option to the Settings Menu, under the Gameplay tab. This option allows players to choose between the “recommended” setting, featuring all the aerodynamics balance updates in Update 1.11, or the “original” setting, in which those changes will not be active. After updating to 1.11, all players will default to the “recommended” setting. Players can only change between these settings when they are in the Headquarters or Main Menu screens; changing this option will not be available during the Race Weekend.

Weather
- Resolved issue causing unintentionally inaccurate weather predictions in the ‘Track Condition’ areas


Race Simulation
- Increased the tyre wear threshold for AI cars to pit under safety car conditions


Razer Chroma
- Support added for Razer Chroma peripherals.  This covers team colours, racing flags (red, yellow, chequered), replays, and ‘lights out’ sequence.


Car Part Development
- Updated the description of rushed manufacturing to remove incorrect information
Performance gap for the ‘DRS Delta’ stat is now more significant, increasing its potential effectiveness


Fuel Usage
- Updated text string on pre-session screen to remove inaccurate details

Look in the Main-Menu in the Gameplay-Settings after you startet the Game. There you have the Option. Old Aerodynamik Stile / new Aerodynamik Stile for Dirty Air.

Open your Eyes, read the Descriptions correctly and you will find it.

Thanks but i have pair of eyes and can read, I have blank options in my menu with no writing ... bit like King Arthur, text does not exist. If you open your eyes and read, many see that other have the same situation. This terrible QA testing from the dev

Impossible to play a whole weekend without 4/5 blocks and spins for my drivers using decent ones like Vettel, a 4-time world championship who is not able to make a complete race within the track!

Then Steam had an Update-Problem on an defect HDD / corrupted Data during Transfer or installed Mod which is old and block Datas. That seems the Problem you all have.

I have spoken many Comrades, which play the Game too on different Platforms (f. e. older PCs with an Up to Date Operating-System and Up to Date Drivers). Some use Freelancer-Help, others not and most important they are 100% normal Gamers without an Influence.

All are saying: The Game is running fine on 1.11 and that Option is defenetly there for the Dirty-Air in the Settings of the Main-Menu-Screen.

Short said: It belongs to the User which is sitting on the Screen and how good he / she is maintaining the Hardware / Software.

I tested 1 Game-Update too with using an Freelancer-Part for an previous Version. Then I had similar Problems like you all have now. After the Freelancer-Part was deleted and the Files repaired, the Game runs 100% fine.

Then the Game runs like real Formula 1 with the correct Dirty Air-Effects. Means: You have the same Issues the real F1 have and the Drives / Teams have to concentrate more.

I see the option and use the "recommended" setting but with save game it does not change anything for me. Did not try new save yet.

Have you seen a real F1 race? Because it does not seem that...tell me only one weekend where a driver like Vettel has had so many troubles, just a single one. In this "simulator game", Vettel makes multiples mistakes every weekend, and the amount of errors done by others drivers is not realistic at all. Trying to defend this is simply ridiculous

From my point f view its nuch less playable than before 1.11 patch. Its nerly impossible to escape from DRS impact and There is DRS train of 10 drivers for many laps without any change

When starting new career, it looks much better. DRS trains begin to break after the first pit stops and at the end there are only a few cars left in DRS trains. Looks far more realistic than before. But you habe to start a new game.

UnReal Engine keeps crashing for this game. Can do a whole race and then when we reach teh cinematics it crashes. basically waste 30 mins to have to do it all over again

Were you experiencing this prior to update 1.11 or is this a new occurrence?

Please submit a report on our issue tracker to help us look into this, thanks!

I had the same kinda thing suddenly start happening after the 1.10 patch (luckily during pre-race cinematics). Try updating video drivers? I think that's what resolved the issue for me, as I have no more issues.

After the update the game worked great for 2 days, since this morning it won't start anymore, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, same problem. It does not work
